What are you guy's thoughts on pistol lanyards?

I haven't really played with them enough to say either way.

I like the idea of a pistol lanyard for some applications, but not on every gun all the time.

If I were going to be spending a lot of time on boats/near the water or on horseback, I would probably look into them pretty extensively. For GP handgun use/carry, I don't really see the need for one, but it can be good to have options.

I had Gene @ HSGI build me a drop holster with a "lanyard pouch" on it. The lanyard stays out of the way until I draw and present the pistol to a target.

It works perfectly and doesn't hang up on anything.
